Describing Storage Devices
• Store data when computer is off
• Two processes– Writing data– Reading data
![Page 3: Chapter 5A](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56813be5550346895da5133e/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
6A-3
Describing Storage Devices
• Storage terms– Media is the material storing data– Storage devices manage the media– Magnetic devices use a magnet– Optical devices use lasers– Solid-state devices have physical switches

6A-4
Magnetic Storage Devices
• Most common form of storage
• Hard drives, floppy drives, tape
• All magnetic drives work the same

6A-6
Magnetic Storage Devices
• Data storage and retrieval– Media is covered with iron oxide– Read/write head is a magnet– Magnet writes charges on the media
• Positive charge is a 1• Negative charge is a 0
– Magnet reads charges– Drive converts charges into binary

6A-8
Magnetic Storage Devices
• Data organization– Disks must be formatted before use– Format draws tracks on the disk– Tracks is divided into sectors
• Amount of data a drive can read

6A-12
Magnetic Storage Devices
• Hard disks– Primary storage device in a computer– 2 or more aluminum platters– Each platter has 2 sides– Spin between 5,400 to 15,000 RPM– Data found in 9.5 ms or less– Drive capacity greater than 40 GB
